Lumen has partnered with AustinGIS and Sky Packets to help cities further develop new smart city strategies. All three companies bring something to the table. Lumen brings its deep portfolio of last mile and long-haul network connectivity. AustinGIS brings its infrastructure-as-a-service (SlaaS)...
Flood control and drainage factors have little impact on the spatial divergence of infrastructure resilience. For infrastructure risk, heavy rainstorms (D8), traffic accidents (D9), electric utility accidents (D10), diseased reservoirs (D3), hazardous chemical accidents (D12), fires (D13), and...
Then, it was developed and applied with large global knowledge bases such as Austin, Barcelona, Helsinki, Manchester, Melbourne and Singapore. Recently, there has been an increase in the application of KBUD in emerging cities such as Beijing, Dubai, Istanbul, Kuala Lumpur, Monterrey and Shenzhen...
In Jakarta, clean water use is 413 million m3 a year, but the supply from the District Water Utility reservoirs is limited to 200 million m3, which indicates that the rest of the 213 million m3 of clean water needed by Jakarta is dependent on underground water reservoirs [26]. The other...
finer details of urban compositions and address fine-scale surface temperature patterns in the study area. We used a supervised approach to classify high-resolution QuickBird imagery into various urban land categories (bright, medium, and dark impervious surfaces, shadows, water, trees/shrubs, ...
The selection of shadow classes attempts to separate impervious dark and shadow classes since they can constitute different thermal properties. (2) Water class: In this class, all water bodies present within the study are included, regardless of water depth. However, we masked out the water body...
